Las Vegas
Happy to fly to Las Vegas for a conference, especially when it’s produced by Proscenium. They light and executive everything perfectly!
Covering a conference as a single photographer is always a pretty large undertaking. It often means you’re expected to be in two places at once. Thankfully I wasn’t the lead photographer on this meeting in Las Vegas, but was working for my favorite production company, Proscenium. They always want sweeping panoramic of their incredible stage design, lighting and production. With a few remote cameras hidden around the venue I can shoot from multiple locations at the same time, and with each camera timed along with my lead camera I can capture the lighting at its best. I shot these stills with a large selection of cameras including a Fujifilm GFX 50R, Sony A7iii, Sony A9, Fujifilm XF70 and a little Ricoh GR. Both point and shoots are set to a time-lapse setting of every 30 seconds. One of the hardest parts is keeping all the cameras charged.
I love traveling as a photographer for clients. It allows me some time to see new places and work for new people. Of course a lot of my work is based in New York, but this month I travelled to Las Vegas and Los Angeles for Proscenium to cover 2 large conferences. My main juseob in Las Vegas was to document the incredible set, stage and lighting built and designed by Proscenium. I setup a few remote cameras around the venue at The Sands in Las Vegas and fired them while also shooting center stage with a long lens. I use a few Canon 5D Mark IV bodies with pocket wizard triggers and have found the new Fuji XF10 is a really great little remote camera to shoot stages with. It has a built in intervalometer and 24 megapixel APS-C size sensor. The files are perfect.
Las Vegas Conference Photographer based in New York City
It's always a pleasure to travel for work especially with such an amazing team as the crew at Proscenium. Here are just a few of the thousands of photos I delivered in Las Vegas, Nevada to the client. I love photographing conferences with incredible speakers and some great stage design and lighting. I also love hidden remote cameras around the main stage to get some additional angles while I shoot.
Most photos take with a Canon 5D Mark IV and a Sony A9. I sometimes have a little Ricoh GR setup on the side for the diagonal shot of the stage. It has a little intervalometer built in so it can just tick along taking a photo every 10 seconds.
